dodie – Pas De Deux (Ukulele)

C
Poppy's a dancer

Am
Just turned 16

           F
Stares at boys who wear glasses

            C
In Look magazine

C
Here comes Tommy

        Am
With glasses and all

F
Flowers in hand and ambitious plans

     C
It's not hard to fall

        C
She's walking on rivers

    Am
he lifts her above

       F
she's full of belonging

                C
and so full of love

       C
Things get a bit louder

          Am
Tommy's focused on plans

      F
His smile's replaced with an aggressive face

            C
But she'll still hold his hand

           C
Now she's given up dancing

       Am
Tommy says she's too old

          F
He says focus on me but she disagrees

            C
While she does as she's told

          C
Are you walking on eggshells

         Am
And when push comes to shove

         F
Are you full of belonging

                 C
But not full of love

C
Back to the studio

               Am
Where she was told not to go

         F
Feeling sick with guilt the tension builds

        C
As she opens the door

     C
And what else would be there

        Am
But a trusting pair

     F                                    C
Of strong bodies lacking in worries performing a pas de deux

C
I am not right

      Am
Yes, this is what's right

F
Souls and hearts and minds intertwined

   C
I won't be defined by him anymore

          C
She was walking on eggshells

          Am
And when push came to shove

         F
She was full of belonging

                  C
But not full of love

     C
So goodbye to Tommy

     Am
And hello to Sam

     F
He doesn't wear glasses but he loves how she dances

      C
And he'll hold her hand

      C
Yes, Poppy's a dancer

      Am
with plans of her own

        F
you'll see her and partner

        C
in the old studio

         C
She's walking on rivers

    Am
He lifts her above

         F
they're full of belonging

                C
and so full of love
